Cancer-free volunteers needed for exercise and cognition study!

The Exercise Oncology Lab at the University of Toronto, led by Dr. Linda Trinh, is offering an exciting remote research study opportunity for cancer-free adults over 40 years old. This study is looking to determine the impact of fitness and physical activity on cognitive function in kidney cancer patients compared to cancer-free, age and education-matched control participants. The study involves a cognitive assessment (e.g., memory games) on Zoom, an aerobic fitness test (e.g., walking), completing an online questionnaire, and wearing a small, lightweight physical activity device for 7 days during waking hours. The time commitment for the study is approximately 1.5 hours, you can participate from home, and you will receive a $60 honorarium and access to a walking program.
